Official 2013-14 NBA Regular Season Thread - SPOILERS!

Good win for the clippers today with BG going down early, cp3 and DJ stood up. Rockets tried the hack a Jordan and didn't work out. Crawford is going to be huge for them in the playoffs when they need to rest their ball handlers, he can really take over in the 4th.
 
news conference on Monday afternoon, sources told ESPN.com. The school released a statement that the 6-foot-8 freshman from Canada will make an announcement Monday at 3 p.m. ET. ESPN.com - See more at: http://hoopshype.com/rumors.htm#sthash.cHYrPgaz.dpuf

Shocking.

In other news, MASSIVE win by POR today, MEM have been great for a while now.

The West race is amazing and the Playoffs are gonna be incredible on that side of the draw.
 
On the cards.

5 or 6 legit teams in the West. Whoever gets though will be most likely no chance against the Heat in the Finals.
Spurs no chance against the Heat? What makes you say that? Considering what happened last year and the fact that the Heat haven't improved. I'm not sure Miami can even get past Indiana this year, it's a bad matchup for them. That's if Pacers stop losing, and lock in home court (they just need to beat Miami again on April 11).

Spurs have to navigate their way through an extremely tough West first. Last year they got lucky and swept the Grizz, when that could have been easily a 7 game series. That was extremely valuable rest for them. Now they might face the Grizz in the first round. Then another contender 2nd, then obviously another, just to get to the Finals, tough!!!

No chance against the Heat? I'll never say never. But I'm not sold the Heat haven't improved. They have cruised through the year so far and may still take the top spot in the East. They'll beat Indy either way, home court or not. I'd be worried if I was a Pacers fan that they may not even get to the Conf Finals. P. George is a gun, but he's finding out how much tougher it is when teams scout you.

I still think the Heat have gotten better. They have been able to sit 4 or 5 guys from their rotation quite often. When the playoffs roll around and their minutes tighten up, they're gonna be there in the Finals, no doubt.

Agreed about Pacers maybe not making it to conference finals since they lose all the games they should win, and win the ones they shouldn't. They seem to only get it together vs Miami then take all the other games for granted.

I was only disputing the "no chance against heat" comment.. I think a few times are capable of beating them (despite not being favourite).

I'm hoping to see Clippers v Pacers in the finals this year. Possible but not probable.

I just think, with teams in the West most likely playing 3 tough series, compared to the Easts 1, it's a lot to overcome.

Whichever team from the West goes through, I just think there won't be much left in the tank to play the Heat.
 
The Heat are still favourites to win! Fact! I'm getting offered $3 for Heat and $7 for Spurs, so it's pretty clear!

I think the West is going to be the Best playoffs in a long time! I think the Spurs can comfortably cover the Mavs, but aside from that, they are in for a rough ride! Houston and OKC are the toughest I think.

I am just hoping and praying that the Heat and Clippers DON'T win it all! Aside from the Spurs winning, this is the only other thing I want! lol
